Medical briefcase icon Levels of Care

outpatient iconOutpatient

Outpatient Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare.

inpatient iconInpatient

Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.

check iconDual Diagnosis

Many of those suffering from addiction also suffer from mental or emotional illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety disorders. Rehab and other substance abuse facilities treating those with a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder administer psychiatric treatment to address the person's mental health issue in addition to drug and alcohol rehabilitation.

mental-health iconMental Health

Mental health rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from mental illnesses like bipolar disorder, clinical depression, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, and more. Mental health professionals at these facilities are trained to understand and treat mental health issues, both in individual and group settings.

inpatient-file iconCognitive Behavioral Therapy

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a therapy modality that focuses on the relationship between one's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is used to establish and allow for healthy responses to thoughts and feelings (instead of unhealthy responses, like using drugs or alcohol). CBT has been proven effective for recovering addicts of all kinds, and is used to strengthen a patient's own self-awareness and ability to self-regulate. CBT allows individuals to monitor their own emotional state, become more adept at communicating with others, and manage stress without needing to engage in substance abuse.

dialectical iconDialectical Behavior Therapy

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a modified form of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a treatment designed to help people understand and ultimately affect the relationship between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. DBT is often used for individuals who struggle with self-harm behaviors, such as self-mutilation (cutting) and suicidal thoughts, urges, or attempts. It has been proven clinically effective for those who struggle with out-of-control emotions and mental health illnesses like Borderline Personality Disorder.

intervention iconGroup Therapy

Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.

mental-health iconIndividual Therapy

In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.

house-medical iconTrauma Therapy

Trauma therapy addresses traumatic incidents from a client's past that are likely affecting their present-day experience. Trauma is often one of the primary triggers and potential causes of addiction, and can stem from child sexual abuse, domestic violence, having a parent with a mental illness, losing one or both parents at a young age, teenage or adult sexual assault, or any number of other factors. The purpose of trauma therapy is to allow a patient to process trauma and move through and past it, with the help of trained and compassionate mental health professionals.

couples-therapy iconCouples Therapy

Whether a marriage or other committed relationship, an intimate partnership is one of the most important aspects of a person's life. Drug and alcohol addiction affects both members of a couple in deep and meaningful ways, as does rehab and recovery. Couples therapy and other couples-focused treatment programs are significant parts of exploring triggers of addiction, as well as learning how to build healthy patterns to support ongoing sobriety.

family iconFamily Therapy

Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment. Genetic factors may be at play when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction, as well as mental health issues. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation.

medical-detox iconExperiential Therapy

Experiential therapy is a form of therapy in which clients are encouraged to surface and work through subconscious issues by engaging in real-time experiences. Experiential therapy departs from traditional talk therapy by involving the body, and having clients engage in activities, movements, and physical and emotional expression. This can involve role-play or using props (which can include other people). Experiential therapy can help people process trauma, memories, and emotion quickly, deeply, and in a lasting fashion, leading to substantial and impactful healing.

nicotine iconNicotine Replacement Therapy

Nicotine replacement therapy in Alabama may be a good option for you if you're dependent on cigarettes or similar products. This therapy allows you to slowly lower your intake of nicotine so you don't suffer extreme withdrawal or cravings as you quit smoking.

This staff would rather be talking all on their phones and/or talking to each other than getting to their patients. I prefer a regular hospital than going to this place. You will be seen a lot quicker there than having to wait 3 or 4 hours to be seen at this VA. Very few peo ... Read More

VA Hospital on Chantilly set me up for three test prior to my physical the following week. I chose to go to the VA Hopital on Perry Hill Road since I knew they had very good breakfasts there. The service and professionalism was absolutely great! I arrived at the lab for bloodwork, EKG, and chest exray about a few minutes before 7 a.m. By 7:33, I was done with all 3. and had a delicious omelet, grits, biscuit, and coffee. I left the hospital right at 8 a.m. Wonderful experience and treated so well by everyone I came in contact with. Thank you, Don Walker, retired MSGT, USAF.

Dr Babbit in the ER wouldn't give me trazadone and called it a " chronic narcotic". I hadn't slept in three days and had been on sleep meds regularly. It was the dumbest thing I've ever heard come out of a doctor's mouth. Someone needs to go back to med school 2 or 3 times more. Trazadone is a non habit forming drug they give for sleep. It's widely prescribed and nowhere near the same class as a "narcotic"! What a joke

I've dealt with the VA prior in El paso and they were great.I requested the community care and I received it.I got a primary doctor through the community care and shortly thereafter, I was able to see specialists for different ailments that I have. Central Alabama VA does not care about veterans. They are very lazy, incompetent and dreadful. I moved here in August, I requested to see a primary doctor in September. I waited and I waited and I waited. I filed two complaints and then finally I get a primary doctor in January. Yes you read that right January. I see my primary doctor, and I request to see a specialty doctor. He puts in the console and I'm waiting and waiting to to no aveil. I called up Community Care (you have to call them as soon as they open,or else you'll never get a chance to talk to anybody.) I told them it's been a long time since my doctor put in the referrals. Why hasn't anything happen? They said it was kicksd back because of an error. I asked him why didn't they inform me or the doctor?they said it was because it was a doctor's fault. Which I know it was totally their fault. That's another thing they don't take responsibility for nothing. I almost forgot to mention prior to that, when I was trying to get my primary doctor they couldn't even do the most simplest things like send the referral to the doctors. They told me that they did it but in actuality they didn't. They are so full of themselves and they're very unapologetic. They just don't care, and nothing ever happens to them. They never get in trouble. They're telling me that I need to check up to see if I get my referrals. That is absurd, I've never called community Care in El Paso once to see when my referrals have been approved and I was waiting on it the doctor. In El Paso I dealt with TriWest. I don't even know what we deal with here. By next week if I don't hear anything, I'm calling to make a complaint once again
